A major hack of AT&T customer records was one of last year's "mega-breaches," according to the Identity Theft Resource Center's 2024 Annual Data Breach Report. The telecom giant may soon be paying a big price for that event and another data breach that occurred in 2019.

The wireless carrier is offering compensation to users who had their personal information leaked and sold to the dark web.

AT&T customers waiting to find out if they could be owed money as part of a multi-million dollar class-action settlement won't have to wait much longer.
